So this homeless person was rewarded with five years of food and shelter?
That's a heckova "punishment."

I had to do a bit of Googling, because I thought Felicity Huffman was black. It must be the name. Sounds very much like the name of a black woman from, say, the 90s, before those ridiculous names like Lashelle, Rayquaza, Shobeequa, etc became the norm.
But no, she appears to be 100% white and that means any good thing that happens to her (and I'm still waiting to hear what's so wonderful about two weeks in PRISON surrounded by tattooed dykes, gang members, and all sorts of "bad mamacitas") is a result of her "white privilege." Oh, and she also played a transgender in the 2005 movie Transamerica. I think that's what they're really mad about. You can't play one of those unless you actually are one (how do they know she isn't?) because apparently an actor's job is no longer
to act but to "explore the lived experience of zir intersectional identity" or some such absolute nonsense.
Also, keep in mind that
she paid for the SAT score. She didn't get it for free. Maybe that's the difference in how the law treated her compared to that homeless thuggette who I doubt ever gave a dime to anyone that wasn't a liquor store clerk.
